His face all grease, his voice all puff,

His eyes two currants stuck in duff;—

Call thet a man!—then look at me!

Thretty year old and six foot three,

Afear'd o' nothing morn nor night,

The man don't walk I wouldn't fight!

Women is women! Thet's their style—

Talk reason to them and they'll bile;

But baste'em soft as any pigeon,

With lies and rubbish and religion;
